Dear mailing list,
Having recently upgraded my firewall machines to FreeBSD 6.2 I am
experiencing the very same phenomena concerning the OOW. The issue is
particularly annoying since it breaks upgrading of the FreeBSD ports in
some cases by simply hanging the download.
Could someone describe the steps to download, apply the patches for
FreeBSD, and install a newer version than the one shipped with
FreeBSD6.2?
I suspect that you'll find that the instructions in "INSTALL.FreeBSD"
work, though you'll have to do "make freebsd6" instead of "make
freebsd5".
Hello again,
I tried this, dowloaded 4.1.19 and came as far as to the
FreeBSD/kinstall command and when asked for file to patch
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/conf.c I presumed that it was the
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/autoconf.c. After the patching make buildworld
broke and a csup did not bring the original files back so the only way
to go back was to save the kernel config, delete /usr/src and csup the
src-tree back.
The other suggestion that I am currently attempting involves editing the
lines:
- (-ackskew <= (MAXACKWINDOW << tdata->td_wscale)) &&
- ( ackskew <= (MAXACKWINDOW << tdata->td_wscale))) {
in the file ip_state.c, however the lines in my csupped ip_state.c say
fdata instead of tdata, I presume this is a typo?
Just out of curiosity, what would be the correct answer for the 4.1.19
question about what file to patch, conf.c or autoconf.c?
Greetings
Roger
